you will not believe the morning i've had - and it's only 10:30 am ET

Ok.

I put a Christmas Tree up in my bedroom this year.  Looked real  pretty -
wtih the miniature white lights.  So I decided right away that I would
keep it up year round - only not with Christmas stuff on but I would
decorate it seasonally.

This morning  - and it is nice here - no wind which is important if you
are going to use spray paint - and that is especially important if you are
going to paint very little styrofoam : (  balls - cause they could blow
all over the yard.

So I bought a can of intense silver glitter spray - cost me $8 - the most
I've ever paid for spary paint.  And I spread the little balls out on a drop
cloth along with a bag of crinkled white confetti to represent snow.

I used the whole can of intense glitter on it all - which turned out to be
disappointing.  So I get a small can of silver spary paint from my
assortment of spary paint but something's wrong and it doesn't work -
except it dripped some silver paint on some of the balls.

I got out a large can of silver spary paint and proceeded from there.

But as I spray I wonder why the snowballs are looking gold.

Then I realize:

I PUT THE SILVER LID ON THE GOLD SPRAY PAINT.


That's ok.

Ever see gold snow?


I'm going to use what I have and decorate my tree with gold snow.




maybe next year i'll get it right
